Wright named DMS principal
Dee Dee Nowlin Wright, a DeLeon native, was named Friday
night to succeed John Grimland as principal.of Dublin Middle School.
Dr Pepper vs. Blue Bell, a battle to the final round "Do I have to decide? I want both!" That’s the sentiment of one visitor to the NBC 5/KXAS website where Dublin Dr Pepper and Blue Bell Ice Cream are in the running for "the best summer treat."
Fireworks are dangerous, exciting holiday treats For the first time in several years, Erath County residents will be able to set off fireworks without infringing on a burn ban or tempting a catastrophic fire event to occur. However, these favorable firecracker-popping conditions do not go without risks.
New DMS principal, teachers hired Six new teachers and a new Dublin Middle School principal were hired in a special meeting of the Dublin School board Friday night.
Citizen closes for Friday holiday Dublin Citizen office will be closed Friday, July 3, in observance of Independence Day. Regular hours will be resumed next week with regular deadlines for next week’s Citizen. We hope everyone has a safe, happy and fun-filled holiday.
Legends Dublin is a long way from Independence Hall, a long way from Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello or John Adams’s Boston, but, in the early days of Erath County, in the dark primeval forests between Stephenville and Dublin, there lived a child of the Revolution, an 89-year-old grandmother named Mary Roberts Lett.

In Review New star on Country Music horizon We have all been exposed to the talents of many people in our world. Luck sometimes plays a big role in how successful those talented people area in all professional areas. In the music world, a new star is on the horizon and Zona Jones is making his own luck, starting with a CD that is sure to be a hit. While George Jones was the first to put Beaumont on the country music map, Zona is the latest in a long line of sterling singers who have graduated from regional stardom to national prominence. Walking in George’s footsteps, Zona has performed in exactly the same clubs that also launched the careers of his good friends, Mark Chesnutt, Tracy Byrd and Clay Walker. Raised on a ranch and the son of a rodeo cowboy/rancher, Zona comes by his name and the music he makes honestly. “My dad was a rodeo cowboy. He competed in college and professionally for a number of years.” Zona’s name is a show of his father’s devotion to the rodeo circuit. My dad missed the rodeo in Phoenix/Scottsdale the year I was born. Because my dad missed the rodeo there, he and my mom decided to name me ‘Zona’, short for “Arizona.” True to his Texas roots, Jones has a smooth voice that is easy listening. His new CD contains a number of tried and true tunes that are good as those by the original artists including Blame it on Mexico, Drinkin’, Bluer than Blue, Never Took My Eyes Off You and She Showed Me. This newly released CD is recommended listening. Mac B. McKinnon Editor & Publisher
